Work Week Weather for Brewster

BREWSTER, NY — These clouds won't stay around. And mercifully, neither will the humidity.

Bill Potter at Hudson Valley Weather promises lower humidity levels by midweek.

"The persistent ridge of high pressure that has kept us dry, will still be present this week, he said. "That means dry conditions return, and so does the heat. Now that average highs are “only” in the low to mid 70s… “hot” days for mid to late September are 80° or higher. And a quick check at the HVW 5 DAY FORECAST will show you, we have plenty of heat left in the forecast."
